Dear Diary: Do You Ever Realize That Life Is Short
I see that some people are doing some kind of madness in acquiring more and more money, power, properties, etc. and not taking into consideration that life is so short and that they will just leave it all behind when they die.
So people must realize that they have to fear God and follow his commandments so when they die at least will walk on golden flooring in paradise and what more in the mansions.
In that point all the riches in this world are pointless and it will be more wiser to use your riches for doing good deeds to other people for you to get a spot in heaven.
Very well said @cryptopie! I have a son whom I wish would see that. Thank you for sharing and reminding.
The smallest good deed is better than the grandest intention.
Not necessarily. If you only focus on making small good deeds, like feeding birds in a local park, and never have grand intentions, you will never make grand things. Find a balance between doing small things and planning big ones.
I think he means that money has no meaning in the afterlife. We can't take money with us.
I am painfully reminded of that bitter truth, everyday.

Our life is very short my friend . I have relize that i am not long time spend in the world .
I am not aware of any commandments of God. Still, when one does accumulate money, they could just announce what they want to do with it, like build a temple or an animal sanctuary.
Then accumulating money, up to the point that is sufficient for the task, is meaningful again and plays a role.
Don't just assume that money is pointless.
